What are your biggest first date turn-offs? - from Em and Lo

One reader on our website says that a woman told him, on a first date, that she was looking for a husband, and then proceeded to ask if she could have a closer look at his teeth. Which is pretty much a dealbreaker for everyone, we would guess... unless you're harboring a dental assistant fantasy.

So what are the worst faux pas that you've experienced...or committed... on a first date? What would you say are your biggest first-date turn-offs?

Ugh, one of the worst things that ever happen to me was that I went out to a nice restaurant with this guy and he actually started picking his teeth with the fork. I was mortified and asked if he wanted me to give him some floss so he could go to the bathroom and take care of it. He then proceeded to go "NOPE, almost got it, the little *******" Lets just say it was our last date.

I was once asked where I was in my menstrual cycle on the first date. It was strikingly funny after a certain The Big Bang Theory episode, but before that, it was pretty much a turn off.

Biggest turn-off? If the person questions me about my life. If it's a first date, you better not be asking me why I'm doing what I'm doing, because it's none of your damned business.

Another one? A lot of makeup and overdone hair. I think that it's cute when a girl looks like she spent a lot of time, but I do not like so much makeup either. Just some soft foundation, maybe mascara, but that's it.

Bitching, the first Date I went on the guy and I sat in my car near his apartment and bitched about our lives + previous schools 'till I made an excuse and kicked him out about 1 am. This was repeated on a second date, needless to say I was "washing my hair" the next time he wanted to go out. While the experience was therapeutic it was because I got a good look at how unattractive such behavior is and good motivation not to repeat it.

On a first date at a comedy club, I returned from the rest room to find my date up on the stage with two buttons opened on her shirt and a table of sailors chanting "show us your tits!...show us your tits!" I was like WTF happened here? Granted, we had been drinking but you gotta be freakin' kidding me! That was a bit of a turn off.

I can not stand arrogant men or people that make a point to talk down to or demean others.
While in college I went out with a guy who was soooooooooo gorgeous and seemed at first to be a nice guy. On our first date we went out for dinner and from the moment we arrived at the restaurant he treated everyone like shit...like he was above them and they were there just to cater to him...I was so ashamed to be with with that I told him he was an asshole and walked out on him..Jerk!

OK, While reading that article, I got down to the last guys comment. He was titled single guy or something and I thought, 'no wonder you're single!' Lol. I felt like him saying a woman should at least pretend she's up for things that she really isn't is already starting a path to fakeness. Then he says he wants the woman to pretend she's more adventurous even if she isn't so that way he thinks she'll be possibly up for skinny dipping, sky diving or a THREESOME?! WTF. If she's NOT into something she shouldn't have to pretend to be just to please an arrogant jerk off. IMO

I've been in a monogamous relationship for 5 years so don't plan to ever date again, but the major turn offs would be rude-ness, having any kind of control issues, not being a gentleman, being arrogant or being rude to others/thinking more highly of themselves than others. Those are deal breakers. Call me old fashioned, but I'm more likely to be drawn to a person who I see caring about others. Now if yuu go out of your way to do something for an old lady, man or something similar, you have got my attention! This shows so many things about a person.

My partner and I knew of each other, went to the same school and had the same group of friends, but never really hung around each other until 5 years ago. Guess what really made him stand out to me? I had a killer migraine and we were at a graduation party and I was miserable. I didn't even feel like drinking. I laid down for a minute with a friend and he came in and sat down. He asked if I wanted to ride with him to the store and I said no. Later he showed back up and handed me a pack of BC powder! Ha Ha. First time I ever took em' and my headache was gone with the powder and a little (or a lot) of beer! Lol.

I ended up pretty drunk and this man who I'd grown up with his step-daughter ended up trying some disgusting moves on me (a teenager!) and insisted on taking me to the ladies room to pee. I was objecting, but he insisted I needed his help. The BC powder guy who's now my partner, stopped him and later I was passed out on the ground and literally could not get up on my knees without falling - he had a bottle of alcohol to my mouth and I was saying stop. I don't want more and the nice BC powder guy told him to stop since he'd heard me ask him to. That hooked me! I had gone back to the friends house the next day looking for him and he ended up finding my number and calling me. Those kind gestures got us together and now have had 5 amazing years together! Kindness is a major turn on to me.
